Today’s Throw Back Thursday comes from the collected wisdom of those who have made it to the top of the media heap.
Al Roker, Christiane Amanpour, Dr. Oz, Lou Dobbs, Erin Burnett, Jerry Springer and Larry King all give their best advice on how to make it in the business.
One Easter Egg in the video is a picture to the right of Christiane Amanpour. In it, Amanpour is holding the boom for CBS reporter Bob Simon while in Bosnia in the 90’s. The insert picture to the left is a blowup of the shot.
Amanpour told TVNewser, “We did it with pleasure, as team work makes the dream work! And especially since Bob’s tragic death it is a poignant reminder of professional collegiality.”
